OTHER AND WORK AWHILE AND DIE,

STILL LITTLE PEOPLE.

BUT ONCE IN A WHILE, ONE OF US

GETS A CHANCE TO DO SOMETHING.

LIFE HANDS IT TO US

ON A PLATTER.

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE.

DON'T MISS IT.

GO BACK?

BUT I'LL BE ALONE.

WE'RE ALL

OF US ALONE.

YOU'LL HAVE SUSANNA.

YOU LOVED HER ALL THE TIME, DIDN'T YOU?

LOOK, YOU WERE UNHAPPY, I WAS

UNHAPPY, SUSANNA WAS UNHAPPY.

SO WE ALL TRIED TO LOSE OURSELVES BY

MAKING EACH OTHER A LITTLE MORE UNHAPPY.

IS THAT ALL IT WAS?

THAT'S ALL

IT EVER WAS.

NOW BE A GOOD GIRL

AND GET SOME SLEEP.

ARE YOU GOING?

YES.

WHEN ARE YOU:

COMING BACK?

AFTER YOU'VE LEFT.

WOULD YOU KISS ME

BEFORE YOU GO?

OF COURSE I WILL.

SO IT IS GOOD-BYE.

OH! THAT'S THE LAS OF THE BURGUNDY.

NOW WE HAVE TO DRINK

CHAMPAGNE. LET THEM EAT CAKE!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING

PERCHED OVER THERE?

THINKING.

COME OVER HERE.

EVERYTHING'S SETTLED.

THAT'S A GRAND AND

GLORIOUS FEELING, ISN'T IT?

NO FEELING LIKE IT.

THAT'S WHAT I SAY.

THAT HOLLOW,

EMPTY FEELING,

AS IF SOMEONE HAD JUST BORED A

TUNNEL TO BROOKLYN THROUGH YOU.

ABSOLUTELY.

WHAT I NEED IS:

REOXYGENATION OF THE BLOOD.

WHAT YOU NEED IS

ANOTHER DRINK.

POOR PAPA'S CELLAR.

NOTHING LEFT OF IT.

POOR PAPA'S CHILDREN.

NOTHING LEFT OF THEM.

WHERE'S EVELYN?

WHERE ARE THE LITTLE STARS

AT DAWN, FIONA?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHERE'S MY GIRLHOOD

AND THE TOP OF MY HEAD

AND THE FIRST INNOCENCE

OF MY MIND?

EVELYN IS WEEPING ON THE

SHOULDER OF MR. GIG YOUNG,

THE FAMOUS MODERN ARTIST.

HAVE YOU EVER:

HEARD OF HIM?

I'LL STILL TAKE ART BY

REMBRANDT AND LEONARDO DA VINCI.

MONA LISA.

ME, TOO.

BUT FOR LOVE, IT'S GIG

ACROSS THE BOARD.

FIONA, WHAT IS LOVE?

LOVE? LOVE IS SOMETHING

YOU CUT OUT OF YOURSELF,

OR IT MOVES IN:

AND CUTS YOU APART.

CAN YOU WALK,

SUSANNA?

WALK?

MMM, THAT STUFF

PEOPLE DO ON TWO LEGS.

I'VE HEARD OF IT.

OH, YOU MEAN WALK.

LIKE THIS.

THAT'S IT.

THANK YOU.

- GOOD NIGHT.

- GOOD NIGHT, FIONA.

GOOD NIGHT, LADIES,

GOOD NIGHT, LADIES

GOOD NIGHT, LADIES,

WE'RE GOING TO...

I DON'T FRIGHTEN YOU,

DO I, AUSTIN?

YOU LIKED IT HERE.

YOU SAID YOU DID.

YOU SAID:

YOU LIKED IT FINE.

"FEEL MY MUSCLE, UNCLE GIG.

IT'S AS BIG AS AN ERSTER."

I TAUGHT YOU TO FIGHT BACK,

DIDN'T I, AUSTIN?

I WILL LAY ME DOWN AND BLEED A

WHILE, AND RISE AND FIGHT AGAIN.

THAT'S THE THING TO DO.

HA HA HA!

IF ONLY I...

I'M SO TIRED.

BUT I'VE GOT NO HEART, AND YOU

CAN'T GET TIRED WITHOUT A HEART.

YOU CAN'T LIVE

WITHOUT A HEART.

FIONA.

SHHH... RIGHT HERE IN THIS VERY

HOUSE, BUFFALO BILL KISSED ME.

IT WAS A WINTER'S DAY,

AND I RAN DOWN THE STAIRS,

AND WALKED INTO THE ROOM,

AND THERE WAS PAPA,

AND OVER THERE:

WAS BUFFALO BILL, AND...

WHAT ARE YOU:

DOING HERE?

THE DOOR WAS OPEN.

GET OU OF MY HOUSE.

OH, NO. IT'S MY HOUSE NOW.

YOU'RE GETTING OUT.

I'LL GO IN THE MORNING.

YOU'RE GOING

TONIGHT-NOW.

OH, I SUPPOSE YOU'RE

GOING TO PUT ME OUT.

YES.

OOAAH!

AH OOH OOH:

OOH HOO!

OOHMMPH!

AND DON'T SCREAM.

I'M STILL YOUR HUSBAND.

IT'S COLD, AND I HATE COLD WATER!

HA HA! YOU HATE ANYTHING

THAT'S GOOD FOR YOU.

BRRR!

WELL, THAT'S ENOUGH.

YOU CAN SHUT IT OFF NOW.

I SAY, "YOU CAN

TURN IT OFF."

UGHH!

I'VE ORDERED

SOME BREAKFAST.

I WON'T EAT IT!

OH, IT'S GOING

TO BE VERY GOOD-

BAKED APPLES; EXCELLEN COFFEE; NICE, THIN PANCAKES

WITH LITTLE PINK SAUSAGES;

AND VERMONT MAPLE SYRUP.

HA! YOU REMEMBER

VERMONT.

A TRUCK DRIVER'S BREAKFAST!

I WON'T EAT IT!

I TOLD YOU:

I WON'T EAT.

WELL, WHAT ARE YOU

THINKING ABOUT?

$25,000-

PRETTY GOOD TIP.

PRETTY GOOD.

AND YOU TOOK I AND TOOK ME.

YES. I MARRIED YOU.

NO, I MARRIED YOU, AND I

PAID YOU FOR IT IN MONEY.

I COULDN' SLEEP VERY WELL.

OH, HELLO, AUSTIN.

MISS GAYLORD. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

CHASING A DEER.

I DON'T THINK IT'S VERY NICE

TO CALL YOUR MOTHER "MISS".

MY MOTHER?

TH-THEN WE ARE

RELATIONS.

I WAS THINKING IF BUFFALO

BILL COULD KISS GIRLS,

I COULD, TOO.

WHY THAT'S... THAT'S VERY

HANDSOME OF YOU, AUSTIN.

HAVE YOU HAD:

YOUR BREAKFAST, YET?

NO, SIR.

WELL, DON'T YOU THINK

YOU BETTER HAVE IT NOW?

FIONA...

I LOVE YOU.

I HATE YOU.

WOULDN'T HAVE ME IF I WAS THE

LAST MAN ON EARTH, WOULD YOU?

NO.

GOOD. WE CAN GO

SOMEWHERE FROM THERE.

I WAS AFRAID YOU MIGHT HAVE

BECOME INDIFFERENT TO ME.

FIONA...

I'VE LOVED YOU SINCE THE

FIRST MOMENT I SET EYES ON YOU.

I'VE NEVER STOPPED

LOVING YOU.

THAT'S WHY I TOOK AUSTIN.

I THOUGHT PERHAPS THAT WHERE

HE WENT, YOU MIGHT FOLLOW.

OH, WHY I SHOULD WAN TO MESS UP MY LIFE

WITH A BAD-TEMPERED VIXEN

LIKE YOU, HEAVEN ONLY KNOWS.

FIONA, WHY DON' YOU STOP FIGHTING ME?

FUNNY... THIS...

THIS ROOM STINKS

OF APPLE BLOSSOMS.
